I have frigidaire refrigerator model # FRS3R5EMB4 and I noticed water leaking from the icemaker and out of the refrig. I took out the ice because it was melting causing the water that was leaking. The freezer in not freezing and the refrig side is not cool either. I look in the back and took off the panel and noticed that the fan was not running. I also did not hear sounds from the motor in the back but I could hear some sounds from the refrig. I opened the freezer and felt air coming out of the vent in the freezer but it is not real cold. How can I tell if the capacitor or compressor is bad? The coils in the back of the refrig is not cold, it is room temp. I feel a little air coming from the vent at top of the freezer where the ice maker is but it is not cold. I feel air coming from the vent at the top of the refrig side also. There is no air coming from the bottom vents in freezer or refrig. I can hear like a fan or something going inside the freezer where the icemaker is and there is where I feel airflow. can someone help me because it is the holiday weekend and I can not get a service person out until next week. I put my food outside on my deck to stay cold but I do not know how long that will last.

Both fans should be going inside and out at the same time. Replace that condenser fan motor.
